1 Bridging Units: Resource Pocket 8 Growth and Decay Students may be familiar with the concepts of growth and decay from science lessons. This is a natural progression from the work in resource pocket 1 which looks at fractions, decimals, percentages and ratio. This pocket develops the use of decimal multipliers whilst continually refreshing the links with fractions and ratios. Students are expected to use calculators effectively for compound interest and growth and decay problems in the new GCSE, although using an iterative procedure will be examined at Higher level only. All of the resources are suitable for Foundation students. This resource pocket progresses through three sections: developing understanding, skills builders and problem solving activities. As with all 9 resource pockets there are a number of different learning styles and approaches used to cater for a variety of learners. 1. Developing Understanding These are class based, teacher led questions with suggested commentary to get the most from a class or small group discussion. The boxed text can either be copied onto the whiteboard for class discussion, or printed onto cards and handed out to students to be used for paired or small group work. 2. Skills Builders These are standard progressive worksheets that can be used to drill core skills in a particular area. 3. Problem Solving Activities Extension activities for paired work or small group work to develop problem solving skills whilst focussing on a particular area of mathematics that students can learn to apply.
2 Developing Understanding 1 40% can be represented by this diagram 40% 100% (a) The diagram represents 40%, what is this as a fraction? What is this as a decimal? (c) Can you write a ratio for this representation? An increase of 12% can be represented by this diagram 100% 100% 12% (d) What percentage is this in total? (e) Can you write this as a fraction? (f) Can you write this as a decimal? A decrease of 12% can be represented by this diagram 100% 100% 12% (g) What percentage is left? (h) Can you write this as a fraction? (i) Can you write this as a decimal? Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. Page 2 of 23
3 This activity is designed to give students a consistent way of visualising increasing and decreasing by a percentage using the Singapore Bar Model. Ensure that the students understand the representations and are confident writing these are fractions and decimals. Some further questions could be: Increasing by 10% is the same as finding which percentage? Decreasing by 25% is the same as finding which percentage? Answers (a) 40 = (c) For example 40 : 60 (d) 112% (e) = (f) 1.12 (g) 88% (h) 88 = (i) 0.88 Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. Page 3 of 23
4 20 20% Extra Free! Express the information shown in the pictures using: (a) fractions decimals percentages (c) ratios Discuss the responses that students have written to each part, giving a special focus to ratio. This is an excellent opportunity to build on the work done in resource pockets 1 and 7 on fractions, ratio and proportion. Tell students that the smaller packet contains 20 biscuits. Discuss how they can use fractions, decimals, percentages and ratios to work out how many biscuits there are in the packet with 20% extra. Make sure that all methods are covered so students can see that they all give the same answer. Ask students to do the same calculations for an offer of 4 1 extra free. Give an extra focus to the decimal way of calculating; ensure that students understand that 1.25 is the multiplier for the increase. Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. Page 4 of 23
5 Answers For example (a) the larger packet has the amount of the smaller packet (c) (d) the larger packet has 1.2 times the amount of the smaller packet the larger packet has 20% more than the smaller packet the ratio of the amount in the smaller packet to the larger packet is 100:120 (or equivalent) If the large packet contains 20% extra Using fractions; 5 1 of 20 biscuits is 4, so 5 6 is 24 biscuits. Using decimals; = 24 biscuits Using percentages; 20% of 20 biscuits is 4, so 120% is 24 Using ratios; one method could be 100 : 120 can simplify to 10: parts = 20 biscuits so 12 parts = 24 biscuits. 1 If the large packet contains extra, then number of biscuits in the large packet will be Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors.

6 Reduced by 10% Express the information shown in the pictures using: (a) fractions decimals percentages (c) ratios Discuss the responses that students have written to each part, again giving a special focus to ratio. Tell the students that the first house is priced at Discuss how they can use fractions, decimals, percentages and ratios to work out the price of the reduced house. Again make sure that all methods are covered so students can then see that they all give the same answer. Answers For example (a) the second house is 10 9 the price of the first house (c) (d) the second house is 0.9 times the price of the first house the second house is 10% less than the first house, or is 90% of the price of the first house the ratio of the first house price to the second house price is 100:90 (or equivalent) Using fractions; 10 1 of 120,000 is 12,000 so 10 9 is Using decimals; ,000 = 108,000 Using percentages; 10% of is 12,000, so 90% is Using ratios; one method could be 100 : 90 can simplify to 10 : parts = so 9 parts = Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors.

7 Developing Understanding 2 Kevin is generating a number sequence using his calculator. He starts with the number 200 To get each number in the sequence, he increases the previous number by 10%. 200, How can you generate Kevin s sequence on your calculator by pressing the MINIMUM number of buttons? Discuss with the group how to generate the next numbers in the sequence, aiming to ensure that they can do this using a number of methods including finding 10% and adding, using a decimal multiplier or a fractional multiplier. Using the multiplier 1.1 is the most efficient method, so allow some time for students to explore using the power button to give numbers in the sequence. Some questions that will help develop this investigation could be: How could we get straight to the fourth number in the sequence using a calculator? Which power would we use to get the third number in the sequence? Which power would we use to get the tenth number in the sequence? Can you explain how you know which power to use for any term in the sequence? If students have not found the quickest way to generate the full sequence, instruct them to make use of the ANS button by following these instructions 200 = This now puts 200 as the stored answer (ANS) in the calculator 200 = 1.1 = = = Gives the second term and stores this as the ANS in the calculator Gives the third term and stores this as the ANS in the calculator Gives the fourth term and stores this as the ANS in the calculator etc Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. Page 7 of 23
8 Change the starting value and the percentage increased (or decreased) by and ask students to generate the sequence using this method. Answers The calculation (= 266.2) would give the 4th number (term) in the sequence. To get the third number, use so the power is 2. 9 The power will always be n 1 (or one less than the term number) Sven is also creating a number sequence. He is using the ANS button on his calculator to generate the numbers quickly. Sven works out the fourth number in his sequence. His calculator display says: ANS (a) Describe in words how Sven s sequence is generated. What was Sven s starting number? (c) How could Sven use the power button to find the tenth number in his sequence? Explain that although using the ANS button is the most efficient way of generating successive values, to find a particular value it is better to use the power button. Students can use this example to set their own problems for other students to solve. They could generate their own sequence using the ANS button and by showing their partner the calculator display for a given term ask questions about the sequence similar to those above. Answers (a) Each number is generated by reducing the previous number by 8% (or each number is 92% of the previous number) The starting number is 50 (c) (= ) Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors.

9 Developing Understanding 3 The Ginormous Green Dragon (GGD) has had a tiny baby today. The baby measures 1 cm in length. Each year baby GGD will double in length. (a) On which birthday will baby GGD be over 1 metre tall for the first time? How tall will baby GGD be on his 15th birthday? Allow students to think through these questions and then discuss as a group the different methods that were used. Encourage students to investigate the use of the power button on the calculator to quickly get baby GGD s heights at given birthdays. The following questions can help to fully develop the discussion: Do we need to write down baby GGD s height at every birthday to get his height at 15? In which units are the heights given on your calculator display? How could we change this into something more sensible? Explain that this model can t go on forever; adults reach their maximum height and then stop growing. As a group decide on a maximum height for baby GGD. How long will it be before baby GGD reaches his maximum height? Answers (a) His 7th birthday, he will be 1.28 m tall m Baby GGD s height can be calculated quickly using 1 2 birthday The calculator will display baby GGD s height in the same units that the initial length of 1 cm are entered. So for the calculator to display in metres, the initial length must be entered as 0.01 etc. Copyright 2015 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. Page 9 of 23
10 Kane got a Rubik s Cube for Christmas. He practises and practises; he wants to be the Guinness World Record holder. Initially it takes Kane 40 hours to solve the cube. With continuous practice, Kane can reduce his time by 20% each month. The Guinness World record for solving the Rubik s Cube is 5.55 seconds. Will Kane ever be the record holder? Ask the students to explore this for a while, making notes on their findings. Encourage students to set out their work clearly with notes to explain what each calculation is for. If needs be, the following questions will help get the investigation started: How can we calculate the time Kane will take after 1 month? 2 months? 3 months? etc In which unit is the time given on the calculator display? How can we change this into a more appropriate unit? After how many months will Kane be at World Record pace? What will happen the month after? And the month after that? Does this seem realistic? Explain to students that this model has limitations as eventually Kane would be solving the cube quicker than he could even pick it up! Answers months passed The speed can be calculated using The units of the answer will be the same as the units used for the initial speed (if 40 is used the answer will be in hours) As Kane gets quicker, hours can be changed to minutes by multiplying the answer by 60 or by using an initial speed of 2400 minutes instead of 40 hours. When minutes become inappropriate, multiply the answer again by 60 to convert the time to seconds. Or use an initial start time of seconds After 46 months (3 years 10 months) Kane s time will be 5.02 seconds After 3 years 11 months, Kane s time will be 4.01 seconds After 4 years, Kane s time will be 3.2 seconds It is getting increasingly more unrealistic.
